Cool project, good job so far!!
I started putting together some parts for the same kind of project. I dont know if its something that I'll get done in 2 months... or 2 years.... but I saw the opportunity and went for it
I found a 1989 KDX200 frame on Ebay that came off a bike that was already street licensed / ridden in Iowa... !!
I'm in Missouri, and I hear it can be a bit troublesome to get a 2 stroke street legal, but... if you take a bike thats already been street licensed / titled, its no big deal. The DMV doesn't even notice at that point.
That, and I have a friend at a shop here that will inspect / sign off on anything I bring him, so inspection is no problem.
I've got a 1997 KX500, with a fair number of mods (pipe, ported cylinder, balanced crank, new piston, etc etc), I'm going to put that engine in that KDX frame, and as many of the other KX parts that will fit
Btw, that KDX frame was only $180 shipped .... how could I pass up on that deal
!
Anyways. Good luck on your project, I'll let you guys know when I start on mine too
